M2 - Default Metrics

Metrics included with Warp Factory

Now that you understand the basics of metrics, here are some existing metrics to explore. Standard Metrics

Warp Metrics - Time Dependent

These warp metrics move through the space. For a proper evaluation of the stress-energy tensor in warp factory, a minimum of 5 time steps must be instanced. Comoving metrics in the next section is preferred for most analyses since only 1 time slice is needed.

Warp Metrics - Comoving

These warp metrics do not move through the space, hence the name 'comoving'. For a proper evaluation of the stress-energy tensor in warp factory, only 1 time slice is needed since the metric is time-invariant.
